Unfortunately the power button is a dud. A little disappointed- I was kinda excited to get this. I’m also now so used to seeing a dark case on my phone that I’m undecided if I like this or not. But here’s umber on a silver pro max

It’s always such a disappointment when that happens. The power button is a dud on way too many of Apple’s leather cases. They need to change something in the manufacturing process or the case design.

Funny all my leather cases that came from apple have been fine.. they fit better and no issue with the buttons. If I get the case anywhere else I have issues. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Umber has a LOT of red undertone to it- more than I thought. It wouldn’t be a daily driver for me anyway. So there’s my sign.

Ordered a spigen frosted clear case (that'll get here today) for my space black phone! I opted for the frosted one so I don't have to deal with fingerprints. I know it'll yellow eventually but it's pretty inexpensive so I'll replace it with another one when that happens.

Anyone like the apple silicone cases? I love my ink leather but I also want that elderberry. I think it would look awesome with deep purple.

I was just in the Otterbox XT for a while, but switched to my Mous Limitless 5.0 Aramid last night for a change of pace
How bad are the fingerprints on the Mouse aramid? Do your buttons rattle?
I have the Bamboo Mous and did not purchase the aramid.

I have a silicone case too in the light pink. I love it but it did get a little tacky after a few weeks. If you have pets it also holds onto pet hair pretty good lol meaning lint (from pets pockets etc) will stick to it. Trust me I love my color I chose but I like the fact nothing sticks to the leather case. Even around my screen I find less sticking to my phone. Worth a try tho!

I can't take my recent black Ryan London case off! I've owned numerous leather cases from different companies, in different colors, and for me....yes I know its subjective this case is perfect in everyway. Extremely tactile in a short amount of time, the buttons are the best I've ever used and the fit is so precise its incredible.

They’re about par for the course with aramid fiber… it’s not bad but I can’t use it for more than a day or two because it bothers me to have to wipe my case back down all the time…

Stick a rectangle shaped piece of paper between the phone button and case button. Fixes it right up.

Here’s a red synthesis after a month of use if anyone wanted to see. It’s got better patina than half of the Apple leather cases in the patina thread lmao

How about the MagSafe UAG pathfinder in white…. Stormtrooper vibes…. @Hooterville has some pics if you look at his “media” on his profile

Lol I already sent it back. It literally depresses more into the side… my ink and midnight from Apple stick up more which keeps it clicky. I’m good. It had more red to it than I preferred anyway. I wouldn’t have lasted past the novelty phase.
